Toronto, Ontario / The Newswire / September 21, 2017 - BlueOcean NutraSciences Inc. (TSXV:BOC) ("BlueOcean" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company was selected to present at Nutrition Capital Network's (NCN) Natural Products Technology Conference for Investors in Las Vegas on September 26 during the Supply Side West Show at Mandalay Bay.

The Company's revived CO2 gas infusion business now targets greenhouse plant growers since filing for a US PTO CO2 Foliar Spray Technology Patent in August 2017. The Company expects 1) a reduction of 50% of CO2 gassing volume in greenhouses that switch to targeted CO2 foliar spray at similar levels of required CO2 in PPM onto plant leaves and 2) increased plants yields due to precise adjustment of CO2 at desired PPM during plant grow phases.

Foliar spray has been in use for about 50 years in greenhouses but no one has to date, dissolved natural CO2 into water without bubbles for foliar spray use. The Company's revived CO2 technology is targeted at the $340Bn Global Greenhouse Vegetables market, the $14Bn US Indoor grow market and the $7Bn US and Canadian Cannabis markets.

The Company's presentation deck describing the opportunity for CO2 foliar spray is now available on the company's website www.blueoceannutra.ca under Investors - Investor Materials - CO2 Grow Solutions Presentation.
